Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
How did the Fund perform last year ?
  • For the reporting period ended December 31, 2024, the Fund’s Institutional Shares returned 4.72%.
  • For the same period, the ICE BofA US Broad Market Index returned 1.47% and the Bloomberg U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) 0-5 Years Index (Series-L) returned 4.69%.
What contributed to performance?
The principal value for TIPS is indexed to inflation, meaning that the principal value is adjusted higher every six months as inflation rises and vice versa. In addition, the stated yield applies to the adjusted principal value. As such, TIPS trade higher when investors expect inflation to rise and trade lower when the opposite is the case. Returns for TIPS are also influenced by the direction of nominal Treasury yields. During the period, prices for short-term TIPS were supported by relatively stable inflation expectations while the rise in nominal Treasury yields had less of a negative impact on shorter maturity TIPS. As a result, the benchmark finished with a meaningful positive return.
What detracted from performance?
There were no detractors from absolute performance.

How did the Fund perform last year ?
  • For the reporting period ended December 31, 2024, the Fund’s Institutional Shares returned 1.20%.
  • For the same period, the ICE BofA US Municipal Securities Index returned 1.58%.
What contributed to performance?
Municipal bonds posted a narrow gain in 2024, with the benefit of income outweighing weakness in prices. For most of the year, municipal bonds performed reasonably well on expectations for interest-rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve (“Fed”). The central bank indeed began its long-awaited interest rate cuts in the autumn, with a half-point reduction in September 2024 and subsequent quarter-point cuts in November and December. However, continued strength in U.S. economic growth, together with concerns about stubborn inflation and hawkish commentary from Fed Chair Jerome Powell following the December meeting, fueled a late sell-off that erased much of the gains achieved in the first 11 months of the year. Municipals outperformed U.S. Treasuries, as strong investor demand and the continued health of state and local government finances caused yield spreads to tighten.
The transportation, tax-backed, and utility sectors delivered the strongest absolute returns in the annual period. In terms of credit tiers, AA rated securities produced the best performance, followed by those rated A and AAA.
What detracted from performance?
Corporate-backed and housing bonds finished with negative absolute returns, as did those in the 8- to 12-year maturity range. No rating class detracted from performance.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
How did the Fund perform last year ?
  • For the reporting period ended December 31, 2024, the Fund’s Investor P Shares returned 0.95%.
  • For the same period, the ICE BofA US Municipal Securities Index returned 1.58%.
What contributed to performance?
Municipal bonds posted a narrow gain in 2024, with the benefit of income outweighing weakness in prices. For most of the year, municipal bonds performed reasonably well on expectations for interest-rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve (“Fed”). The central bank indeed began its long-awaited interest rate cuts in the autumn, with a half-point reduction in September 2024 and subsequent quarter-point cuts in November and December. However, continued strength in U.S. economic growth, together with concerns about stubborn inflation and hawkish commentary from Fed Chair Jerome Powell following the December meeting, fueled a late sell-off that erased much of the gains achieved in the first 11 months of the year. Municipals outperformed U.S. Treasuries, as strong investor demand and the continued health of state and local government finances caused yield spreads to tighten.
The transportation, tax-backed, and utility sectors delivered the strongest absolute returns in the annual period. In terms of credit tiers, AA rated securities produced the best performance, followed by those rated A and AAA.
What detracted from performance?
Corporate-backed and housing bonds finished with negative absolute returns, as did those in the 8- to 12-year maturity range. No rating class detracted from performance.
